Modern Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Well, first I'd go to the room where they keep the Cezanne
But if I had by my side a girlfriend
Then I could look through the paintings
I could look right through them
Because I'd have found something that I understand
I understand a girlfriend
Said G-I-R-L-F-R-E-N
That's a girlfriend, baby
That's something that I understand
Alright
I walk through the Fenway, I have my heart in my hands
I understand a girlfriend
That's a girl friend
Oh, that's a G-I-R-L-F-R-E-N
Well, that's a girlfriend, baby
That's something that I understand
Four o'clock in the afternoon in the Fenway
I have my heart in my hands
I understand a girlfriend
That's a girl, friend
That's G-I-R-L-F-R-E-N
That's a girlfriend, oh, baby
Well, that's something that I understand

I HAD TO RISE UP AND DANCE!
One, two, three, go
[Verse 1]
Friday night, killer queens
Hop a train, on the scene
All the band, is in the wild
Don't you dare touch the dial
We dressed up like a heart attack for you
We dressed up like a heart attack
I'm talkin'
Little jeans, tiny hat
Evan Smith, tiny sax
Drama kings, sing it loud
Drag that shit all over town
Play it like a heart attack for ya
We playin' it like a heart attack
[Chorus]
So kiss me on the cheek
Make it a long goodbye
Ooh, and all the modern girls (The modern girls)
Shakin' their ass tonight
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, love on wire a wire
Oh, lookin' for a fight
Ooh, and all the modern boys (The modern boys)
Are goin' out tonight
